Speaker 1: Help We Suck At Being Newlyweds with Dean Aungler, Haylen Miller,
Speaker 1: Keys and Jared Haven An iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 2: What is going on? Everybody?
Speaker 1: Welcome to an all new episode of Help We Suck
Speaker 1: At Being Newlyweds? And for the first time in podcasting history,
Speaker 1: is for the show. At least for the first time,
Speaker 1: our name actually works.
Speaker 3: We are newlyweds.
Speaker 1: We're finally newlyweds, so big big ups to that.
Speaker 2: We were playing the long game the whole time, long game,
Speaker 2: long game.
Speaker 1: We got alistairs over here trying to get out to
Speaker 1: the food. It was gonna be right.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So we had our wedding last weekend. It is now Tuesday.
Speaker 1: We've had what three days to recover and process since
Speaker 1: since then, Yeah.
Speaker 4: And we have been staying here at the Little Nell,
Speaker 4: just ordering room service, resting. My voice is still gone,
Speaker 4: it has been. Honestly, I think this is the best
Speaker 4: way to do it. Otherwise we would have gone straight
Speaker 4: from the wedding to Vegas. And now it can just
Speaker 4: really relax because I feel like when we're in Vegas
Speaker 4: we work on the house.
Speaker 3: So we have nothing to do here, no agenda, no plans,
Speaker 3: and it's been perfect.
Speaker 2: So you having fun?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Are you?
Speaker 2: Best mini moon ever?
Speaker 3: Best mini moon ever?
Speaker 2: Actually blew my back out?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's probably probably from dancing.
Speaker 1: I guess I just said I should be blowing your
Speaker 1: back out, and he is my back blown out.
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on. I think it's the pillows.
Speaker 4: I think if people have seen any videos from social media,
Speaker 4: they know why you're back in. Neck have been blown
Speaker 4: out because you were dancing your butt off.
Speaker 2: I know your neck off, but I didn't. Yeah, I know.
Speaker 1: It could definitely be that because you don't really work
Speaker 1: on building those neck muscles and then all of a
Speaker 1: sudden you're twitching and twerking them all around.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, so we have a rundown here. I haven't
Speaker 2: looked at it yet, but.
Speaker 4: It's a wedding rapid fire. If we want to start
Speaker 4: with that, or do we want to start with the
Speaker 4: whole weekend?
Speaker 2: Tell us about the weekend?
Speaker 4: Okay, So we have been planning this for I don't know,
Speaker 4: eight months or so, and we toured this venue in Aspen.
Speaker 4: We were staying here, I think we were staying at
Speaker 4: the Little Nell when we were touring maybe, and we
Speaker 4: were at a hat store here in Aspen called Chemo Sabbi.
Speaker 4: It's one of my favorite stores. And one of Dean's
Speaker 4: friends works there and she was like, you have to
Speaker 4: go visit Bayol because we were telling her we were
Speaker 4: seeing venues and it was the second venue we saw,
Speaker 4: and thank goodness to her because our wedding planners had
Speaker 4: never heard of it.
Speaker 3: Like it's very off the grid.
Speaker 4: Very new venue that nobody really knows of unless you
Speaker 4: live here in Aspen.
Speaker 3: So we saw it.
Speaker 4: I fell in love with it, and I just really
Speaker 4: wanted a camp themed wedding, like I loved Camp growing up.
Speaker 1: I feel like you're going into the backstory, but we
Speaker 1: already know all the backstory if we listen to this podcast,
Speaker 1: we know all this stuff already.
Speaker 3: I don't even really know where to begin.
Speaker 2: So everyone started on Thursday.
Speaker 4: Arrived on Thursday, and I still felt a lot of stress.
Speaker 4: I was just really worried that people were going to
Speaker 4: be upset by how much money they spent because it
Speaker 4: was expensive. But as soon as everyone got in and
Speaker 4: everyone was like, oh my gosh, this is so beautiful,
Speaker 4: this is so unique, all of my stress just lifted
Speaker 4: immediately and we just all hung out.
Speaker 3: On Thursday. Friday, we had field Day.
Speaker 4: And another thing that I loved was, you know, growing
Speaker 4: up kindergarten, you would do field day and it was
Speaker 4: like the best day ever or all throughout elementary school.
Speaker 4: And so we played tug of war, we played three
Speaker 4: legged race, all of these games, and I think people
Speaker 4: weren't super into it when they were coming down, They're like,
Speaker 4: what the heck are we doing?
Speaker 3: But then people got really into it. Dean's team won.
Speaker 3: My team.
Speaker 4: I just saw photos from the photographer. My team wasn't
Speaker 4: even on the board because we scored zero points, and
Speaker 4: that's the way. It makes most sense that way. But
Speaker 4: it was super fun. I just wasn't super invested in.
Speaker 4: I was like watching everyone have fun.
Speaker 1: So you wanted everyone to be invested in something like
Speaker 1: you weren't even well to invest in yourself.
Speaker 3: Okay, here's why.
Speaker 4: We played Tug of war immediately and I was like, okay,
Speaker 4: we're probably not gonna win, and yeah, so field day
Speaker 4: was super, super fun. Everyone got into it. Dean's team one,
Speaker 4: like I said, and then we had the welcome dinner.
Speaker 4: We encourage everyone to dress mountain chic. Is the way
Speaker 4: that our wedding players put it and encourage everyone to
Speaker 4: wear hats and boots, and everyone came out like looking
Speaker 4: best ever. I think the guys excelled in dressing mountain
Speaker 4: chic esque better than the women. And they just crushed it,
Speaker 4: you know, Chad, one of Dean's friends, Chad, Ben Higgins, Wells,
Speaker 4: they all just really did.
Speaker 3: A great job.
Speaker 2: Mountain chic aka hipster is basically what it is, hipster,
Speaker 2: mountain hipster, mountain.
Speaker 1: Hipster, and Wells is a mountain hipster. Wells is a hipster,
Speaker 1: but he's a beach hipster. So yeah, I think all
Speaker 1: you got to do was put it on an overlayer
Speaker 1: and then he instantly became a mountain hipster.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was good. It was good, good stuff.
Speaker 3: It was good.
Speaker 4: We had us and we did have two speeches. We
Speaker 4: had Dean's brother give a speech, and we how.
Speaker 1: Are we in the events of the weekend right now?
Speaker 1: Friday Friday dinner? Yeah, Oh, my back is just killing
Speaker 1: me right now. I like I even like looking at
Speaker 1: like moving my eyes from left to right.
Speaker 2: My head hurts my back.
Speaker 3: Somehow we'll get to that. That's a Saturday thing.
Speaker 2: No, I don't even want to talk about that. At all.
Speaker 1: I think I do think it's just from sleeping on
Speaker 1: it weird. But yeah, the field day, I just want
Speaker 1: to go back to that real quick. So there were
Speaker 1: six teams. The way you're making it sound, it sounds
Speaker 1: like there was two teams and I just beat your team,
Speaker 1: but no, in reality, six teams. I beat five other teams,
Speaker 1: not one hand not single handedly.
Speaker 2: You know, I had some help for my team. Obviously.
Speaker 1: Came down to a tiebreaker at the very end, and
Speaker 1: the tiebreaker was a rock paper scissors battle best two
Speaker 1: out of three and I got a rock paper scissors
Speaker 1: battle one of my best friends from high school with
Speaker 1: everyone cheering a song.
Speaker 2: It was pretty great. So it was a nice moment
Speaker 2: for me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was. It was very fun and just see
Speaker 4: you win and see you so stoked to win was awesome.
Speaker 1: I do kind of regret wearing the brown suit to
Speaker 1: the reception dinner on Friday. Why well, because I had
Speaker 1: that blue tux that I just never wore, right, and
Speaker 1: it would look so good. Yeah that one was like fitted,
Speaker 1: like tailored tour to me.
Speaker 4: But yeah, I do a great would have looked great,
Speaker 4: But the brown just fit the mountain cheek vibe. And
Speaker 4: you like, the photos of us in the cabin just
Speaker 4: looked like straight out of Yellowstone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but blue could have looked even better maybe, But
Speaker 2: you're right, be right, Elas. I also have other regrets,
Speaker 2: but I'll get to those later, I guess.
Speaker 3: I only yeah, I don't know if I have regrets.
Speaker 4: So Friday we had two speeches. Dean's rather was beautiful.
Speaker 4: He did a great job, and then two my best
Speaker 4: friends gave speeches as well together and they did a
Speaker 4: great job too, And that's all we needed.
Speaker 3: I think two speeches was perfect.
Speaker 4: We really don't love attention on us, and to that point,
Speaker 4: I think having everyone together, like everyone waking up having
Speaker 4: brunched together each morning, just like being in cabins was
Speaker 4: super helpful, helpful for us to alleviate that like pressure
Speaker 4: of all of the attention being on us, you know,
Speaker 4: like walking down the aisle, I didn't feel I don't know,
Speaker 4: it just felt like super comforable, super intimate, and I
Speaker 4: really loved that. Also, the food at the venue our
Speaker 4: wedding was at Bay Owl, and the food was absolutely insane.
Speaker 4: It was so good every single meal. So we went
Speaker 4: and did our food tasting and we were like the
Speaker 4: food probably isn't going to be good, but the venue
Speaker 4: is awesome, so that's all that really matters. And the
Speaker 4: food is just so good and everyone kept raving about it,
Speaker 4: so that made me really happy to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the food is good. Everyone loved it. Okay, so
Speaker 2: let's move on to the next Saturday. Saturday.
Speaker 4: So Saturday, well Friday, we stayed up and played fish bowl.
Speaker 4: There were two teams and two rooms playing fish bowl.
Speaker 4: I guess four teams, two different groups of people playing
Speaker 4: fish ball, and we stayed up until like one midnight,
Speaker 4: one am. Nothing too crazy, and there were extra beds
Speaker 4: in the cabins, but I didn't remember where, and it
Speaker 4: was so late.
Speaker 3: We were so tired.
Speaker 4: Diana and I wanted to sleep separately, but we ended
Speaker 4: up just sleeping together, woke up together, had breakfast together,
Speaker 4: and then I started to get ready and so did
Speaker 4: and Deane cut his hair.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I hate the whole It just reminds me of being
Speaker 1: back on The Bachelor, where it's like, all right, we
Speaker 1: need you to get ready at one o'clock and then
Speaker 1: you're like okay, and this is before you like are
Speaker 1: starting to realize these types of things are like.
Speaker 2: Okay, cool, I'm ready.
Speaker 1: I'll be ready at twelve forty five just because I'm
Speaker 1: excited for whatever is next. And then one o'clock comes
Speaker 1: and they're like, all right, we need you to go
Speaker 1: down to this area and you're like, okay, okay, I'll
Speaker 1: go down there. And then you're down in that area
Speaker 1: and they're like, all right, we're ready to shoot in
Speaker 1: three hours, and you're like.
Speaker 2: Well three hours? What did I get ready three hours?
Speaker 1: That's exactly how the wedding day felt, where they're like,
Speaker 1: we need you ready by one forty five and I
Speaker 1: was like, okay, what time do you really need me
Speaker 1: ready by? And they're like all right, we really need
Speaker 1: you ready by two fifteen, And then like two fifteen
Speaker 1: came and they're like, all right, just as long as
Speaker 1: you're ready to go by three forty five, that's all
Speaker 1: we need.
Speaker 4: And it's like that's how I felt too, because they
Speaker 4: originally wanted me to start getting ready at nine, and like,
Speaker 4: typically you have your girlfriends get ready with you, you have
Speaker 4: your guy friends get ready with you, brides maids and groomsmen,
Speaker 4: even though we didn't have them, and my friends were like, so,
Speaker 4: what time do you want to stay at like three
Speaker 4: pm because everyone was having so much fun on the
Speaker 4: campground and like there's paddleboard and canoeing all this stuff.
Speaker 4: Nobody wanted to be stuck in a room, which I
Speaker 4: took in sae. I was like, the latest I can
Speaker 4: get ready is what I want. So I started getting
Speaker 4: read ready. At eleven. They gave me an hour break.
Speaker 4: I like sprinted away to write my vows and I
Speaker 4: was with my girlfriends. They were kind of helping me
Speaker 4: just piece together all my vows and then I was
Speaker 4: getting ready for a couple hours. We shoot the photos.
Speaker 4: It's like, hurry up, hurry up, we gotta go. We
Speaker 4: gotta go, like put down the makeup brushes, we gotta
Speaker 4: go right now.
Speaker 3: We shoot the photos. And then they're like, all.
Speaker 4: Right, you have an hour till the ceremony, and I
Speaker 4: was like, what the heck. I was stressed writing my
Speaker 4: vows as Emma's doing my makeup. So I definitely felt
Speaker 4: that too. And it was just hard because once I
Speaker 4: was ready, they were like, well, no one can really
Speaker 4: see you're in your wedding dress.
Speaker 3: You just kind of have to hide and sit for
Speaker 3: an hour. But it all worked out. It's okay.
Speaker 4: It just was such a cool venue that and one
Speaker 4: of my favorite things has been since the wedding was
Speaker 4: just seeing everyone's stories of what they did throughout the weekend,
Speaker 4: Like people went on hikes, people were throwing axes, paddleboarding,
Speaker 4: like I said, And it's just so cool to see
Speaker 4: how everyone came together and just their little activities. And
Speaker 4: it really seemed like everyone had the best time. Because
Speaker 4: a lot of our friends, not a lot, but like
Speaker 4: half of them, I know, I'm speaking a lot half
Speaker 4: of them are quite bougie. So just to see them
Speaker 4: embrace the mountain cabin camping theme.
Speaker 3: Was really cool.
Speaker 1: I mean, it was still it wasn't like it wasn't
Speaker 1: anti bougie.
Speaker 3: Though, yeah, it was still bougie.
Speaker 1: Of course it wasn't. Yeah, it wasn't like they were
Speaker 1: actually rough in it. But no, I agree with you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like the you do have a little bit of trepidation
Speaker 1: of those guys coming in and not necessarily loving the
Speaker 1: venue maybe as much as you want them to or
Speaker 1: as much as you do or anything like that. But
Speaker 1: it seemed like everyone everyone really enjoyed it. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so I was getting ready for the wedding ceremony. I
Speaker 1: also hadn't written my vows, and so I needed like
Speaker 1: twenty minutes raight my vows. I had thought about everything
Speaker 1: I wanted to say already, so it was gonna be quick.
Speaker 1: Typed them out of my computer in five minutes and
Speaker 1: then maybe like fifteen minutes, and but I wanted to
Speaker 1: read them out of this book that we had, and
Speaker 1: so I like writing it from the computer to the
Speaker 1: book took way longer than expected. That was a big
Speaker 1: pain in the butt, just because like I didn't even
Speaker 1: finish it, and they were like, you're up, you have
Speaker 1: to walk out, and I was like still halfway through
Speaker 1: the second paragraph. I was like, okay, well I need
Speaker 1: to figure out how I can get these like from
Speaker 1: here to here. And so we just like printed them
Speaker 1: out and then taped them into the book. And when
Speaker 1: I was up, there were sitting the vows. I had
Speaker 1: never ridden it in that font and that size before,
Speaker 1: so it was just like that's why I was like
Speaker 1: stuttering a lot, and I kept losing my spit my
Speaker 1: place where I was reading from, so that was kind
Speaker 1: of a bummer. I did get a haircut just before
Speaker 1: the ceremony. Kalin came into the room very unannounced and
Speaker 1: really really kind of messed up of you actually.
Speaker 2: To just show up into the you had no idea.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, you just you aren't supposed to
Speaker 1: leave your home base when those things are going on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wasn't given instructions. It was messed up.
Speaker 1: It's messed up. My sister cut my hair. She did
Speaker 1: a great job. I was like, really, I like was
Speaker 1: so pressed for a time I couldn't even chower and
Speaker 1: wash my hair. And that's my biggest regret, is not
Speaker 1: washing my hair because my hair looks so greasy in
Speaker 1: those pictures and it was like I hadn't washed it
Speaker 1: in like a week up to that point, up until
Speaker 1: I washed it the next.
Speaker 2: Day or whatever it is, you know. So that's my
Speaker 2: biggest regret.
Speaker 3: Well, that's your biggest regrette. It's not too bad.
Speaker 1: No, Now, I'm gonna to look at those pictures for
Speaker 1: the rest of my life thinking about how greasy my
Speaker 1: hair was.
Speaker 3: But it's on brand.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's kind of what I keep trying to tell
Speaker 2: myself to twist it like edgy.
Speaker 1: It's interesting, it's it doesn't make sense and that should
Speaker 1: be good enough for you.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it should have washed it I even.
Speaker 1: I think I asked someone. I was like, should I
Speaker 1: wash my hair? And they're like, no, no, it looks good,
Speaker 1: looks good. And it's like, of course they're going to
Speaker 1: say it looks good on my wedding day. Like they're
Speaker 1: not gonna lie and tell me it looks bad, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Yeah, like I should have been
Speaker 1: asking other people for advice because of they were just
Speaker 1: gonna say whatever they think they needed to say.
Speaker 2: This sound good, that's fair.
Speaker 4: So the ceremony happened, and I was standing on the side.
Speaker 4: I could see Dean from our cabin. They'd like, hit
Speaker 4: me in my cabin. Our cabin, and I hear this
Speaker 4: music playing, and what song did Jackson walk down to
Speaker 4: our officiant m.
Speaker 2: I don't remember.
Speaker 4: Either, but I was like, that doesn't sound like Jackson's song.
Speaker 4: And then suddenly everyone's cheering and clapping. I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: they must be cheering for Dean. And then I see
Speaker 4: Dean and I was like, no, that's Jackson, and I'm like,
Speaker 4: they better cheer for Dean like that, And then Dean's
Speaker 4: song comes down and Dean was supposed to walk down
Speaker 4: the aisle too. Don't worry, be happy, and then suddenly
Speaker 4: it's like this bass is going and I was like,
Speaker 4: what the heck? That is not the right song, and
Speaker 4: there's like a quick moment of panic, and then I
Speaker 4: hear it's Lose Yourself by Eminem and I hear everyone cheering.
Speaker 3: So good.
Speaker 4: I'm like, wait, this is actually amazing and this is
Speaker 4: just so perfect for you. And seeing the video and
Speaker 4: the photos of everyone just like you running down the running,
Speaker 4: not even walking down the aisle, running down the aisle,
Speaker 4: clapping everyone's hands, it was awesome.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was pretty nice.
Speaker 1: We were driving up to the venue the day before
Speaker 1: and Kiiten was like, I just need to get pumped
Speaker 1: up real quick, and so she put on Lose Herself by.
Speaker 2: Aminam and I was like, oh, I didn't even know
Speaker 2: you knew what this song.
Speaker 1: Existed, and I just figured it would be a good
Speaker 1: thing to give you to smile.
Speaker 2: I was like, make sure she hears my song when
Speaker 2: I walked down the aisle.
Speaker 1: And when I suggested it to the wedding planners and
Speaker 1: the DJ the day before, they were both were like,
Speaker 1: are you sure you want to do that? It sounds
Speaker 1: like a pretty stupid thing to do. And I was
Speaker 1: like yes, do it. You have to do it. And
Speaker 1: they came to me that same day, the next day
Speaker 1: of the ceremony, and they were like, are you sure
Speaker 1: you want to do it? Still, like we got a
Speaker 1: teed up, Are you sure you want to do it?
Speaker 2: And I was like, do it. It's going to be hilarious.
Speaker 3: And it was.
Speaker 4: And I told Dean if he had asked me, like
Speaker 4: we were doing our little hearsal that took two minutes
Speaker 4: for the wedding, I was like, if you asked me
Speaker 4: if you could walk down the aisle to that, I
Speaker 4: would have been like, no, that's ridiculous. But the fact
Speaker 4: that you did it, it was so perfect, and that
Speaker 4: it was such a good surprise to you. I was
Speaker 4: just laughing my butt off. On the side, it alleviated
Speaker 4: a lot of stress and it was perfect.
Speaker 2: Let that be a lesson, you know.
Speaker 3: I don't know if it like applies to every situation.
Speaker 1: It doesn't apply to every situation, but it applies to
Speaker 1: a grand grand amount of them. Yeah, just let them,
Speaker 1: just let me take control, do my thing. It'll all
Speaker 1: work out. You'll be happy, you'll be smiling as long
Speaker 1: as that's all going on. By the end of it,
Speaker 1: You're happy, and Calen walked down to what song again?
Speaker 3: I walked down the.
Speaker 4: Aisle to kissed Me by sixpence and just like I
Speaker 4: love nineties rom coms, you know, yeah.
Speaker 1: They're pretty good. That was a good song. And then
Speaker 1: we walked off the stage. Two Wildflowers by Tom Petty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is our song for Pappy.
Speaker 2: It's a great song.
Speaker 3: And Alistair also walked down the aisle.
Speaker 4: Was so bad all weekend and I think he has
Speaker 4: regressed and he's gotten worse. Not think, we know, he's
Speaker 4: gotten so much worse. So he got kicked out of
Speaker 4: a restaurant yesterday. But Dean's brother is the only one
Speaker 4: that Alistair likes. So Deane's brother walked him down the
Speaker 4: aisle and then Alistair was like barking and crying for
Speaker 4: us while Jackson was reciting his portion of it, and
Speaker 4: it was it was cute, It was cute.
Speaker 2: He just wanted to be next to us. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: want to be part of the wedding. And they got
Speaker 2: stuck in the room.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, So where else do we go from here?
Speaker 4: So then Dane and I took photos, so we toured
Speaker 4: the venue for our tasting. It was our second time
Speaker 4: being at the venue and our wedding photographer came. He's like, oh,
Speaker 4: the day of the wedding would be so awesome if
Speaker 4: you guys gott in a canoe and we took photos
Speaker 4: in a wedding dress. And I remember looking at him
Speaker 4: and being like uh huh and thinking there's no chance.
Speaker 2: I was the one that came up with the canoe idea.
Speaker 3: By the way, Oh, I thought it was him.
Speaker 2: No, it was me.
Speaker 3: Oh well, I remember being well, I was.
Speaker 1: Debbie made a comment in passing and I was like,
Speaker 1: we're doing this.
Speaker 3: No, Carter brought it up when we had our food tasting.
Speaker 2: I remember, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: Then I must have brought up to him first, because
Speaker 1: I remember bringing it up to him, and Carter is
Speaker 1: great and I don't want to take anything away from him.
Speaker 2: And maybe I am misremembering it.
Speaker 1: Maybe, but I do remember going up to him and
Speaker 1: being like, hey, there's a canoe and he's like, oh,
Speaker 1: great idea.
Speaker 2: Let's see if you can figure out I don't make
Speaker 2: that work.
Speaker 3: Who knows.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I know.
Speaker 3: I remember Carter saying let's do this.
Speaker 1: Yes, because I brought the idea to Carter first.
Speaker 2: It matters. I want credit for this idea, all.
Speaker 3: Right, Dane said, let's get there.
Speaker 2: The thing is, I'm not even.
Speaker 1: Taking credit for Debbie gave me the idea, but then
Speaker 1: I gave the idea to Carter, but I was higher
Speaker 1: up in the pecking order.
Speaker 4: The reason I think you're wrong is because I have
Speaker 4: been thinking about this sense of food tasting and because
Speaker 4: it was brought up to me at the.
Speaker 3: Food Taste All.
Speaker 1: You're saying like months ago, Yes, may I don't think
Speaker 1: that's right, but anyways, yes, because I've.
Speaker 3: Been thinking about it since then.
Speaker 4: Anyways, someone brought it up and I for months I've
Speaker 4: been thinking there's no chance, and I'm doing that. And
Speaker 4: then we get down there and I was like what
Speaker 4: And they're the most beautiful photos ever at Like the
Speaker 4: aerial shot from above is just so cool and serene,
Speaker 4: and the photos were great. But was even better was
Speaker 4: during cocktail hour, which I really wanted to make it for.
Speaker 4: We just took time to like sit in that canoe
Speaker 4: and talk in the canoe.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, what what is it?
Speaker 2: Oh you're gonna talk about the catch sitting on the couch.
Speaker 3: Oh, but this is first.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 4: So we took like twenty to thirty minutes to be
Speaker 4: in that canoe, and the photographers and videographers were getting
Speaker 4: shots of us, but we couldn't really hear them, so
Speaker 4: it was very intimate and just felt like the two
Speaker 4: of us. And then we joined the last like ten
Speaker 4: minutes of cocktail hour, we rang the bell for being
Speaker 4: the bells.
Speaker 3: We had dinner.
Speaker 4: Food was amazing again, and then in the middle of dinner,
Speaker 4: so we walked up after the canoe during cocktail hour
Speaker 4: and there's all these awesome lounges that our wedding planners,
Speaker 4: Milk Glass, set up, and I was like, oh, I
Speaker 4: kind of wish like we were here and could like
Speaker 4: enjoy these lounges. It looks so cozy. And I didn't
Speaker 4: even say that to Dean, but I thought about it.
Speaker 4: And then in the middle of or after we finished
Speaker 4: in Nardine was like, let's go sit in these couches
Speaker 4: and stop photos, and they snapped like five photos and
Speaker 4: then we just sat there for another twenty thirty minutes
Speaker 4: and watched all our friends and all our family just
Speaker 4: interact and got to enjoy some more time just the
Speaker 4: two of us.
Speaker 2: It was super special, super spacih super spacih, that's not
Speaker 2: did an outfit change? I asked again, Hey, should I
Speaker 2: wash my hair between this outfit and that outfit? And
Speaker 2: you said, don't wash your hair, it looks great.
Speaker 3: I don't even remember saying that. Ugh, but you put
Speaker 3: a hat on in nuts.
Speaker 1: The hat really did help cover up the hair. Go figure,
Speaker 1: go figure. Yeah that's true. Yeah, that dinner was really nice.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to think of any other specific moments
Speaker 1: during that whole thing, between the ceremony and the pictures.
Speaker 4: And I also put ugs on because it's so hard
Speaker 4: to walk in heels in that like gravel and grass.
Speaker 4: So I was running around in my wedding dress and
Speaker 4: ugs and never in million years thought I'd be wearing
Speaker 4: uggs of my wedding dress. But it was also so
Speaker 4: cold and you couldn't see them.
Speaker 3: It was perfect. I was comfy.
Speaker 1: What else did you have a ware if it wasn't
Speaker 1: for the ugs the heels all night? Yeah, that's fully unhinged.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, the ceremony heels were really really high and
Speaker 4: the reception heels were a lot lower, so I could
Speaker 4: wear those the rest of night and was comfy, but
Speaker 4: I just could not walk. I think I lasted down
Speaker 4: the aisle and then as soon as we took photos,
Speaker 4: had to take them off because they were just a
Speaker 4: little too high for me.
Speaker 1: Your heels at the ceremony had a nice little platform
Speaker 1: thing on them.
Speaker 3: No platform, Oh oh, a little stopper.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I put stoppers on all my heels just so
Speaker 4: I wouldn't sink in the grass. That's cool, because I
Speaker 4: think I probably would have fallen over walking down the aisle.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that was a thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just sized them all out. I had to
Speaker 3: order like twenty.
Speaker 2: Kaln's vows were the best vows.
Speaker 4: No, they weren't. Jane's valves were so good. And so
Speaker 4: we talked on the rehearsal who should go first, and
Speaker 4: I was like, well, the person who isn't their vale
Speaker 4: aren't as good should go first. And I was like,
Speaker 4: let me go first. I was like, let me go first.
Speaker 4: I know yours are going to be better. I know
Speaker 4: you you're so good at articulating your feelings and just yeah,
Speaker 4: so I went first.
Speaker 3: No, I mean Dean went first. I was let down
Speaker 3: after that.
Speaker 2: That's not true. But your vowels were great, No, they were, Okay,
Speaker 2: yours are.
Speaker 3: Great no, youres are great. You got everyone crying.
Speaker 4: And we have this one friend who tells us she's
Speaker 4: dead inside, and she's like, you guys got me to cry,
Speaker 4: which is a big deal.
Speaker 3: Who's that autumn?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, But I feel like after the ceremony and
Speaker 1: you say something heart felt, even if they did, like
Speaker 1: I've been guilty of this before, you go up to
Speaker 1: them and you're like, I cried so much at your
Speaker 1: wedding or at what you were saying, and like, even
Speaker 1: though I know I didn't cry, I'm just saying that.
Speaker 2: Because I would.
Speaker 4: Wait, you said that, I've never said that to someone
Speaker 4: and not cried. I've actually never cried at a wedding.
Speaker 2: I'm good at this wedding.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. I was crying walking down the aisle.
Speaker 4: The first person I saw was my friend Michelle, and
Speaker 4: she's bawling and I was like, no, And when I
Speaker 4: see someone else cry, then I start crying. And then
Speaker 4: it was like teer after cheer as I'm walking down
Speaker 4: the aisle and I was like, off it, neat little baby,
Speaker 4: And then I looked at you, no tears.
Speaker 2: You didn't have any tears, and you looked at me.
Speaker 3: You said no, I'm saying, I looked at you and
Speaker 3: you had no tears.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I did not cry.
Speaker 1: I was standing at the like about to walk down
Speaker 1: the aisle with Jackson, our or reverend I guess we
Speaker 1: should start calling him, and.
Speaker 2: I was like I was thinking about everything.
Speaker 1: I was like, damn, I'm getting married right now, looked
Speaker 1: at Jackson, looked at some of my friends, and I
Speaker 1: was about to start crying, and I like sucked it
Speaker 1: up and then I just kind of was like laughing
Speaker 1: and happy the whole time.
Speaker 2: So I wasn't crying.
Speaker 4: There were a few times any vows where I thought maybe, yeah,
Speaker 4: maybe now's the moment.
Speaker 1: Well, I had rehearsed those vows probably a dozen times
Speaker 1: over the past few months.
Speaker 4: Okay, but you know what you said on this podcast
Speaker 4: into me so many times. You're like, I have recited
Speaker 4: these vows so many times, and I've cried every single time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm okay, if you'd let me finish that.
Speaker 1: I was going to get into that I've recited those
Speaker 1: vows a dozen times and I've cried every single time.
Speaker 1: That I've gotten to the point now where I'm just
Speaker 1: like out of tears or I like have gotten comfortable
Speaker 1: enough with saying it that I am not going to
Speaker 1: cry about it anymore. And I shortened the crap out
Speaker 1: of them.
Speaker 2: Nor.
Speaker 1: I think if I had written what I originally wanted
Speaker 1: to write, it would have been three or four times
Speaker 1: longer than they were.
Speaker 3: You know, same with me.
Speaker 4: And that's when I'm a little frustrated with I wish
Speaker 4: I knew I had that forty five minute to hour
Speaker 4: break in between getting ready and the wedding, because I
Speaker 4: would have mine were a lot longer too, And so
Speaker 4: I definitely condensed them because I was writing, and writing
Speaker 4: really does take so long.
Speaker 2: I heard that you wrote your VSS every day over
Speaker 2: the past like six months.
Speaker 4: Well yeah, Debbie told me, she was like, right after
Speaker 4: you get engaged, you should just start taking notes. So like,
Speaker 4: I've had this vow note for the past however long
Speaker 4: We've been engaged, almost a year, and I just keep
Speaker 4: adding to it. So then, but I never actually try
Speaker 4: to like come together and put them into one thing.
Speaker 2: Until the day before the until the day of the wedding.
Speaker 4: Well, I started, remember we were on Ashley in Ben's podcast,
Speaker 4: and that's when I really had started to fine tune
Speaker 4: them so I just needed like five minutes just to
Speaker 4: like really make it perfect. Gotcha, right, But writing him
Speaker 4: out really takes like a long long time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems like you procrastinated quite a.
Speaker 4: Bit, of course, and I was shocked to myself. But
Speaker 4: I did tell Debbie. I was like, if it weren't
Speaker 4: for you, I would have just been so stressed. And
Speaker 4: she's like, that's why you should start so early. And
Speaker 4: I think it's a great, great advice for brides and
Speaker 4: grooms because then you're sitting in your room and you're like, Okay,
Speaker 4: you know what am I thinking about him this day
Speaker 4: or the day before, Like we've been spending this day apart.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think it's smart, and especially for us where You've
Speaker 4: been climbing all these mountains and I've had a lot
Speaker 4: of time to miss you and just think about you
Speaker 4: a lot.
Speaker 3: So yeah, but you're.
Speaker 2: Saying it didn't work very well for you.
Speaker 4: Just writing, transcribing, transcribing, Transcribing was the biggest pain. And
Speaker 4: I was writing. I was like, I'm gonna make these
Speaker 4: so pretty. We have these books. My handwriting's gonna be great.
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, uglyest handwriting every.
Speaker 2: But you've finished writing in the books. Yeah, of course,
Speaker 2: of course, of course, so you had more time to
Speaker 2: write more in the books.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but at that point then I would have had
Speaker 4: to start over, because they were the I wanted to
Speaker 4: add in the middle.
Speaker 3: I understand you see now.
Speaker 2: I see now, Okay, grave as though, nonetheless.
Speaker 3: Thanks, here's your great, here's your better, that's not true,
Speaker 3: but it's not a competition. I love you and that's
Speaker 3: all that matters.
Speaker 2: Are you sure? Because I couldn't tell about your brass.
Speaker 2: I'm just kidding. I know you love me and I
Speaker 2: love you too, so much, so so much.
Speaker 3: Okay, don't do this on the podcast.
Speaker 2: And then what happened? So then we have the reception dinner.
Speaker 3: Yes, okay. So then I.
Speaker 1: Changed into a white suit jacket, which is funny. I've
Speaker 1: talked a lot of smack about white tuxedo jackets on
Speaker 1: this podcast.
Speaker 4: Oh, I guess we should quickly. I guess we talked
Speaker 4: a little bit about it. But Dean's Texas didn't get
Speaker 4: in and set leave aspin.
Speaker 3: We were delayed whatever.
Speaker 4: So they gave him two free tuxes and he was like, well,
Speaker 4: I'm going to get a white tux and I never
Speaker 4: thought in a million years he would actually wear it,
Speaker 4: but he did, and it looked great, looked pretty good.
Speaker 2: Still kind of wish I'd wore the blue one at
Speaker 2: some point, but just for the day before.
Speaker 1: But the brown was good. I should warn't like for
Speaker 1: this for Sunday when everyone was leaving. I should have
Speaker 1: put the blue tucks on it. Yeah, really really let
Speaker 1: them off of the bang.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, my tuxes didn't get in. They eventually
Speaker 2: did get in and they got picked up.
Speaker 1: But you know, there weren't any alterations be able to
Speaker 1: be made, and who knows if they would have been
Speaker 1: able to be made. But like they were small things
Speaker 1: that didn't work, Like my shoes didn't fit the vest.
Speaker 1: I couldn't get to like snuggle up on me right
Speaker 1: because I don't really know how to work.
Speaker 2: One of those vests.
Speaker 1: Just a couple of little things like that that didn't
Speaker 1: really matter that much.
Speaker 4: But you know, still, yeah, that was a bummer. It
Speaker 4: all worked out, but it was stressful for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why did we bring that up?
Speaker 1: Oh my white tux jacket that I told everyone that
Speaker 1: I thought was douchey to wear, I ended up and
Speaker 1: I think it was actually my favorite outfit more so
Speaker 1: than my long tail tuxs.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was. I loved all your outfits.
Speaker 4: And Dean did wear the long tail text with a
Speaker 4: bolo tie and it looked really good.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Just the hair, just the hair is a little
Speaker 2: too greasy.
Speaker 3: But yeah, so after dinner I made my quick change.
Speaker 3: We cut our.
Speaker 4: Cake, which was really difficult because it was so tall,
Speaker 4: and we were just laughing the whole time at what
Speaker 4: a terrible job we did cutting the cake. Wow, And
Speaker 4: then we went into Also our DJ was awesome. We
Speaker 4: got to talk about Sean, Sean, He's the man. Sean
Speaker 4: was so great and we loved hanging out with him.
Speaker 4: So we're like, just stay for the reception because then
Speaker 4: we had a band, and he stayed and for a
Speaker 4: little bit at least. So then the band came and
Speaker 4: we had never heard the band perform.
Speaker 3: They were so good.
Speaker 4: I don't know what I expected, but they were unbelievable.
Speaker 4: Stratosphere from Jordan Conn Music Group. If you're getting married,
Speaker 4: hire them. They were insane. They kept like interacting with
Speaker 4: the crowd. They'd come down. They would like hold out
Speaker 4: their trumpet for people to that's trombone bone, hold out
Speaker 4: their trombone for people to do limbo under like. They
Speaker 4: were so good. Their vocals were insane. They kept giving
Speaker 4: the mic to me, which was awesome. Always a risk, yeah,
Speaker 4: always a risk. Shanaia Twin came on and the part
Speaker 4: where they she says, man, I feel like a woman.
Speaker 4: They gave the mic to me to say that part,
Speaker 4: but they also gave it to Ben Higgins and he
Speaker 4: said it in the weirdest voice ever, which really tripped
Speaker 4: me out, especially after a cocktailer too.
Speaker 3: I was like, what's happening? And then yeah, it was great.
Speaker 4: And we also had a tattoo artist there, so everyone
Speaker 4: there was a Neon sign that said the Bells Tattoo Parlor.
Speaker 4: It was milk Glasses idea and I'm so happy we
Speaker 4: did it because we got to keep it. People were
Speaker 4: lining up the second they were allowed to, and I
Speaker 4: think Matt, the tattoo artist, was a little overwhelmed, so
Speaker 4: we started a sign up sheet. Not everyone got to
Speaker 4: get tattooed. I didn't think there would be that many
Speaker 4: people wanting to get tattooed same.
Speaker 2: I thought there'd be like ten of us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was.
Speaker 4: Like fifteen to twenty. Who knows, but it was like
Speaker 4: almost every single person at the wedding.
Speaker 2: I would say he probably gave forty to fifty tattoos
Speaker 2: that night.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and there were seventy people over.
Speaker 2: The course of three hours. Well, I know we booked
Speaker 2: him for four hours, but there was it actual four hours. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so let's say fifty tattoos over four hours. That's like
Speaker 2: twelve and a half tattoos an hour. It's pretty good,
Speaker 2: so insane. So it's a tattoo every five.
Speaker 3: Minutes, that's what he said.
Speaker 4: He said it would be five to ten minutes, and
Speaker 4: he did a great job. And I also got to
Speaker 4: tattoo Dan myself, which was one of the highlights of.
Speaker 3: The whole weekend.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they went to the bathroom. We still there, needle gun, you're.
Speaker 2: Tattooing right now.
Speaker 1: That's not necessarily how it happened, but yeah, I asked, well,
Speaker 1: we didn't even get matching tattoos, though, I guess did
Speaker 1: we We.
Speaker 4: Did it, and I thought I would like know exactly
Speaker 4: the tattoo I wanted be ready to go, and I
Speaker 4: just picked off the board like five seconds before.
Speaker 3: And I'm pretty proud of myself for doing that and
Speaker 3: not overthinking. Yeah, why are you laughing.
Speaker 1: Just because you got this tiniest, babiest little squiggle.
Speaker 4: And I have to say because they couldn't size them,
Speaker 4: which makes sense now, like they didn't have a printer
Speaker 4: to actually size each tattoo, and that would have taken
Speaker 4: so much longer too. It's like, these are the tattoos,
Speaker 4: these are the sizes we move on. And they were
Speaker 4: a lot bigger than what I would want. So I
Speaker 4: took a tattoo off of a map, like a larger map,
Speaker 4: and there was like tiny little mountains within the map.
Speaker 3: So that's what I got.
Speaker 2: Let's see it. Do you have it available? Is it
Speaker 2: on your wrist or something?
Speaker 3: It's on the back of my arm.
Speaker 1: Oh all, I got hers on her wrist. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I got a ghost. I knew the second I saw
Speaker 1: the Duelo shot I was gonna get the ghost. This
Speaker 1: is the cutest little guy ever. Got it with Katelyn
Speaker 1: Kaylen's best friends, and she woke up the next morning
Speaker 1: and it's like, wait a second, this is a little
Speaker 1: bit bigger than I thought I wanted it to be
Speaker 1: or something.
Speaker 2: Is that right?
Speaker 3: I think I hit my tattoo. I think it's overtaking
Speaker 3: my other tattoos.
Speaker 1: Oh, she got it too close to her other tattoo. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so she wants see like shoes on an now or something.
Speaker 1: And her boyfriend and I are really good friends as well,
Speaker 1: and he's never gotten a tattoo, and so I got
Speaker 1: a matching tattoo with him. That's the one that Kaylin
Speaker 1: did for me. Yeah, it's a little stick figure guy
Speaker 1: upside down. No real significance to him being upside down.
Speaker 4: Oh.
Speaker 1: I thought of something actually in the moment to make
Speaker 1: it more significant, but I can't remember what it is now.
Speaker 1: But because Josh got his sideways first ever tattoo, and
Speaker 1: he's a Jewish man, so I always thought that if
Speaker 1: you get a tattoo, you can't be buried in the
Speaker 1: Jewish cemetery.
Speaker 2: But apparently that's no longer a rule. Oh, because I guess.
Speaker 1: There were a lot of Jewish people that were good,
Speaker 1: you know, good Jews, and they just couldn't be buried
Speaker 1: in cemeteries because they've had tattoos and tattoo mindsets changed
Speaker 1: so much, and so now I think maybe they've dropped
Speaker 1: that rule.
Speaker 2: That's what they said.
Speaker 1: I don't know how legitimate that is, but but yeah,
Speaker 1: so we both got matching stick figure guys, and I
Speaker 1: got a matching ghost with his girlfriends.
Speaker 2: I just think that's kind of funny that I have
Speaker 2: tattoos with both of them.
Speaker 1: That was another funny thing I kept saying too, was
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, if there are fifty people
Speaker 1: that got tattoos here tonight, a lot of us are
Speaker 1: close friends, but a lot of us maybe aren't as
Speaker 1: close as the others are, like maybe just meeting for
Speaker 1: the first time. And if you got gay fifty tattoos,
Speaker 1: there's probably like four or five that were the most common,
Speaker 1: and that means that you have a similar tattoo these
Speaker 1: actually tattoo as someone that you don't really know very well.
Speaker 2: I just think that's kind of funny.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was, Yeah, it was super cool.
Speaker 4: We also had a wheel that you could spin, and
Speaker 4: if you're brave, you spin the wheel, whatever it lands on,
Speaker 4: you get that tattoo. And the person whose idea was
Speaker 4: is the only person who got it. Not so efficient,
Speaker 4: reverend Reverend Jackson. My little sister, she's eighteen and got
Speaker 4: her very first tattoo as well, and she was super nervous,
Speaker 4: so I like held her hand and was dancing, was
Speaker 4: they were trying to pump her up. She's a little
Speaker 4: shy girl, but she did it. She got a stamp
Speaker 4: on her thighs.
Speaker 3: My other sister got a tattoo. It was cool.
Speaker 2: Where's your other sister?
Speaker 3: Goet cowboy boot?
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So the rest of the night was good. We were
Speaker 1: dancing up a storm. The band killed it. The tattoo
Speaker 1: hours was amazing, The cake was incredible. Food was great.
Speaker 1: Baby Will Retreat did a great job. Milk Glass Productions
Speaker 1: wedding planners. They were freaking unbelievable.
Speaker 4: They were and I do want to talk about them
Speaker 4: for a second because they had a huge team come out.
Speaker 4: It was a huge property. I don't even know how
Speaker 4: many acres. How many would you guess fifty it's gonna
Speaker 4: say thirty, Yeah, okay, acres and acres And there's no
Speaker 4: service at all, which was really cool too because everyone
Speaker 4: was super unplugged and they had walkie talkies, so they're like,
Speaker 4: does anyone have eyes on the groom? They were just
Speaker 4: like so on top of it in every single aspect.
Speaker 4: If they were stressed, they never let me know that
Speaker 4: they were stressed. I had a girl, Maggie, who was
Speaker 4: my right hand girl. The whole wedding day and rehearsal dinner.
Speaker 4: She kept me so calm. I just get really anxious
Speaker 4: when I'm getting my hair and makeup done because I
Speaker 4: don't really like to be touched. And so she kept
Speaker 4: giving me those breaks that I need to just stay relaxed,
Speaker 4: and she got me my wedding dress.
Speaker 3: Shout out to Maggie. She was great.
Speaker 2: Shout out Maggie, thirty two acres. I just slicked it up. Okay,
Speaker 2: I was right, You're very close. Shout out to our
Speaker 2: photo booth.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, the photo booth was so fun, super fun.
Speaker 4: Took like two or three photos. Oh. We also brought
Speaker 4: in this coffee cart, which Dean didn't try, but I
Speaker 4: knew that Bayul just had chirp coffee.
Speaker 3: I don't really drink coffee. I'm a macha girl, and
Speaker 3: so on.
Speaker 2: Saturday, I'm macha girl.
Speaker 3: I'm a matcha girl.
Speaker 4: So satur Day, the day of the wedding, I brought
Speaker 4: in this coffee cart and it was a huge hit.
Speaker 4: And someone said the little details of the wedding were
Speaker 4: really what made it so special. And one of our
Speaker 4: friends was like, every corner. I was just so excited
Speaker 4: to see what was around every corner. So another friend
Speaker 4: told me, I don't know if I told you this,
Speaker 4: But another friend told me her biggest regret from her
Speaker 4: wedding was not spending enough money. And so when we
Speaker 4: were getting hit with all of these invoices, and I
Speaker 4: was like talking to people, I like, do I add
Speaker 4: the tattoo artists?
Speaker 3: Do I add the coffee cart? Do I add the
Speaker 3: photo booth?
Speaker 4: Someone was like, I wish I spent more money, and
Speaker 4: I do think it was all worth it.
Speaker 3: Silence from you, But I don't think.
Speaker 2: I don't think for a second I wish I spent
Speaker 2: more more money.
Speaker 4: Well, looking back, I don't think I wish we spent
Speaker 4: more money. I think what we spent is perfect. I
Speaker 4: think what we did is perfect. But I was going
Speaker 4: through that before having added all those little details.
Speaker 2: No, I get it.
Speaker 1: I get the point she's trying to make by saying
Speaker 1: I wish I spent more money. Yeah, But I would
Speaker 1: never ever say, yeah, man, I wish I spent more money.
Speaker 2: But I see your point.
Speaker 1: Like, I think what she's saying is like, do the
Speaker 1: little extra is spend a little more together the things
Speaker 1: that you really want versus the things that you're trying
Speaker 1: to save money on by not getting Yeah, that kind
Speaker 1: of thing makes sense.
Speaker 3: Yeah I didn't.
Speaker 4: I Yeah, we cut corners and things we didn't really
Speaker 4: care too much about.
Speaker 3: And it was perfect.
Speaker 4: I keep saying it's the best wedding ever, best weekend
Speaker 4: in my life.
Speaker 3: It was. I wouldn't have changed a single thing.
Speaker 2: You're a little biased when it comes to that.
Speaker 4: Though, of course, But like, oh my gosh, I'm so happy,
Speaker 4: and I feel like I was so present and got
Speaker 4: to enjoy every single moment. We got so much time together,
Speaker 4: we got time with our friends. It was like a
Speaker 4: perfect balance.
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed how I liked just my phone was
Speaker 1: in the room the whole time. Basically like never had
Speaker 1: my phone on me, which like now kind of sucks
Speaker 1: because I don't have any photos or videos from the event,
Speaker 1: but you know, enough people had their phones out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But like I would leave the room and be like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, you're on my phone on me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's okay, and then like you know, you go out
Speaker 1: and totally forget about it. Ten minutes later, they don't
Speaker 1: have your phone on you. So it's just like, was
Speaker 1: nice to be able to disconnect and spend some time
Speaker 1: with people.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just perfect, just perfect.
Speaker 2: And then Saturday came and went. We were married.
Speaker 1: Sunday, we'd checked out and now we're at the Little
Speaker 1: Nell and Aspen.
Speaker 4: Wait Saturday night, though Dean got We think Dean may
Speaker 4: be allergic to whiskey. We talked about his whiskey allergy
Speaker 4: after the engagement party. But the wedding planners are so sweet.
Speaker 4: They butt bride and groom packed up some food for
Speaker 4: us to have in our room becausey knew we'd be hungry,
Speaker 4: and the like drew little photos on it. It was so
Speaker 4: sweet and so thoughtful of them. Also could have been Babil,
Speaker 4: I'm not sure one of the two. And there were
Speaker 4: rose petals on our bed when we got into the room.
Speaker 4: It was very, very thoughtful. And Dean was just a
Speaker 4: little tipsy, and so our friend tonight is a buried
Speaker 4: couple and feeding him little pieces of steak in bed. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But I also got back before you and I just
Speaker 1: the couch so you could have see the little flower.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was so sweet.
Speaker 4: A jan there's a little chase lounge that he was
Speaker 4: sleeping on because he got into the room like thirty
Speaker 4: minutes before.
Speaker 2: Me covered in Kitlen's things.
Speaker 4: By the way, the chesslune, Yeah, that was not empty,
Speaker 4: and he was laying on that, sleeping on that, and
Speaker 4: so that I could see the little rose petal heart
Speaker 4: on our bed, which is so sweet of you.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I earned the skirt steak that you hand fed me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 1: And then everyone left the next day and it was
Speaker 1: a great weekend. Let's see this rapid fire recap. Who
Speaker 1: was the drunkest, uh?
Speaker 3: I have no idea.
Speaker 1: There's probably me who was the best dancer? You there
Speaker 1: was probably and Ben Higgins whose valves were better yours.
Speaker 1: It's nice who ended up getting tattoos? Whose idea was it?
Speaker 1: We already kind of went over this. I got tattooed,
Speaker 1: Kaitlyn got a tattoo. Fifty people and forty to fifty
Speaker 1: people got tattoos. It was Caitlyn's idea. Yeah, of course,
Speaker 1: didn't get emotional. Did Kaylne get emotional? We already answered
Speaker 1: coming some of these. I did get emotional, but I
Speaker 1: kept it inside of me. Kaylen got emotional and she
Speaker 1: kept it outside of her. Are you happy you allowed speeches?
Speaker 2: Yeah? The speech is really good.
Speaker 3: I am. Yeah, it was special. Yeah, two was perfect.
Speaker 3: Any more than that and I would have been like
Speaker 3: enough talking about us.
Speaker 2: Enough talking about me.
Speaker 1: I can only handle so many people talking about it
Speaker 1: about me, or like I can only talk so much
Speaker 1: about myself. Yeah, I've I got enough jokes like yeah,
Speaker 1: I get it, I'm late, I'm gone a lot, I
Speaker 1: smell bad. I these all these jokes are a little
Speaker 1: played out, and I don't need to hear it for
Speaker 1: multiple people.
Speaker 4: Also, in my vows, I was going to be super
Speaker 4: self deprecating and Tory was like, can you stop talking
Speaker 4: crap about yourself?
Speaker 3: And I was like, well that's okay. So I got
Speaker 3: a lot of my self jeplication as well.
Speaker 1: Can I just I want to say my favorite point
Speaker 1: in my vows to you, yeah, was when and I
Speaker 1: was I was questioning whether I was going to get
Speaker 1: even a single laugh on this, but I knew my
Speaker 1: brother would laugh, so I decided to say it.
Speaker 2: Anyways.
Speaker 1: It was something along the line and for context, my
Speaker 1: brother at his wedding said something along the lines of
Speaker 1: you're stronger than von Miller in Super Bowl fifty three
Speaker 1: or something like that strip seck I don't know, he
Speaker 1: like mentioned von Miller and the Denver Bronc was in
Speaker 1: his vows, and I was like, I gotta find a
Speaker 1: way to work the Denver sports teams into mind. So
Speaker 1: I said, Kaylin, just like defending NBA, just like defending
Speaker 1: world champion and two time NBA MVP.
Speaker 2: NICOLEA. Jokic, you're no. And I gave you like some
Speaker 2: qualities like.
Speaker 1: Patient and strong and all these and humble, and then
Speaker 1: I was like, yes, kid as a guess, just like
Speaker 1: Nicole Yukic. I thought that was pretty funny. And I
Speaker 1: don't know if anyone laught, because I was like kind
Speaker 1: of blacked out.
Speaker 2: Of the people.
Speaker 3: People definitely laught. I had no idea who that was.
Speaker 2: Tho, you don't know who Nicole Yolkic is. Do you
Speaker 2: have any idea now who it is?
Speaker 3: You told me we.
Speaker 2: Watched every Denver Nuggets playoff game. Together.
Speaker 3: Oh is that the guy from Russia?
Speaker 2: The guy from Serbia? Yes?
Speaker 3: Oh yes, the really tall yes, blonde? Yes, oh of
Speaker 3: course yes. Thank you for comparing me to him.
Speaker 2: What was our first dance song? It was Sam Cook, Sam.
Speaker 3: Cook bringing on Home to Me and Home Me.
Speaker 4: The reason we chose it is because we looked up
Speaker 4: the meaning of the song and it's about a guy
Speaker 4: who loses a girl and we'll do anything to get
Speaker 4: her back.
Speaker 3: And it's like our paradise story.
Speaker 1: That's not why we chose it. I said this should
Speaker 1: be our song. And then you're like, it's can I
Speaker 1: can I event for a second? Yeah, I need to
Speaker 1: vent for a second. There were so many times where
Speaker 1: Kaylyn would be like, we need to find her first
Speaker 1: dance song, and I'd be like, okay, great, and then
Speaker 1: she'd play like three songs and I'd be like, oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, this song is great by Sam Cook's perfect.
Speaker 2: And then she'd be like, oh my gosh, you really
Speaker 2: think so. I think it's so great too.
Speaker 1: And then the next day she'd be like, hey, we
Speaker 1: need to find her first dance song, and I'd be like,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about. We just figured out our
Speaker 1: first dance songka, your memory is so of that's what
Speaker 1: we did. And then and then I like to sit
Speaker 1: you down on the couch and say, Kayln, when we
Speaker 1: say we're going to do something, we can't just come
Speaker 1: back a day later and give out more options to something.
Speaker 2: Because once you make your mind, if you have your
Speaker 2: mind made.
Speaker 3: Up options, let me tell you it really happened.
Speaker 2: Options are not always me tell you how.
Speaker 3: It really happened.
Speaker 4: I made a playlist of thirty songs, like hand selected.
Speaker 4: Didn't even look in those stupid Spotify playlists because they
Speaker 4: were all so cheesy. Came up with my own that
Speaker 4: were super us and I was like, we're gonna make
Speaker 4: pizza outside. I'm going to play these songs and we're
Speaker 4: going to decide play one song and you're like, that's it,
Speaker 4: and so then I was like fine, and then other
Speaker 4: songs kept coming to mind.
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, what about this one. This is a
Speaker 3: new one. That's how it happened.
Speaker 1: Okay, where were we when we first thought that Sam
Speaker 1: Cook would be our We were.
Speaker 3: In the kitchen because I wanted to do it on
Speaker 3: the pizza night.
Speaker 2: Oh we were in the kitchen.
Speaker 4: Huh.
Speaker 2: Where were we? Definitely not out of the kitchen.
Speaker 3: Let me tell me where we were?
Speaker 1: In your car driving down Charleston Boulevard in Las Vegas.
Speaker 4: Yes, and yes, I know exactly that intersection right before
Speaker 4: you turn up to two fifteen.
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly.
Speaker 1: So now whose memory is skewed because you were so
Speaker 1: convinced that you were in the kitchen?
Speaker 3: But I played it.
Speaker 2: But my point is.
Speaker 1: You can't knock me for having a questionable memory when
Speaker 1: you're saying, but it's like the most important tail, and
Speaker 1: I panics.
Speaker 3: That's why I said kitchen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3: Okay, huh huh.
Speaker 2: When did Dean get his haircut?
Speaker 1: I got it an hour before it took it took
Speaker 1: way longer than I thought. I thought it was gonna
Speaker 1: be like a twenty minute thing. It took like an
Speaker 1: hour and a half. That's also why I couldn't shower
Speaker 1: and clean it. Yeah, did anything unexpected happen?
Speaker 3: Oh? Yes, that we can't say.
Speaker 1: Just use let's use two aliases. My good friend Bartholomew
Speaker 1: and your good friend Rachel Rachel got together Barton Rachel,
Speaker 1: Bart and Rachel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they liked each other.
Speaker 3: They liked each other. Maybe we'll be going to their
Speaker 3: wedding one day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe we'll be going to bart and Rachel's one day.
Speaker 1: It was unexpected, I'll tell you that. But if you
Speaker 1: knew Bartholomew though, like I'm saying you as in like
Speaker 1: the listener, you would get it.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: Was the first night we were all drunk hanging out
Speaker 1: inside when it was like because it is just warmer
Speaker 1: in there and Bartholomew was wearing this cowboy hat, this vest,
Speaker 1: looking all good.
Speaker 3: And well now everyone knows who it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Wells was pretty drunk and he's like, Bartholomew,
Speaker 2: we gotta get you on the Bachelor. Oh yeah we can.
Speaker 2: We can turn you into a star. You'd be great.
Speaker 1: And then Wells look up the next day he is
Speaker 1: also where he's like, I can't believe I was saying
Speaker 1: that last thing. But it's funny because Bartholomew wants to
Speaker 1: go on the Bachelor.
Speaker 4: He like, would always hit me up about it, and
Speaker 4: he was about to go on one season.
Speaker 3: M and then they just didn't.
Speaker 2: Call him back, which is crazy to me.
Speaker 4: But I agree with Wells, like he could be the
Speaker 4: Bachelor and could be such a successful bachelor. He's so
Speaker 4: kind mm hmmm, he's so charismatic, great speaker.
Speaker 3: But now he might have a girlfriend.
Speaker 1: Yeah Rachel Rachel Hi might be together, so that would
Speaker 1: not be good for his bachelor stock did everyone stick
Speaker 1: to the mountain chic theme.
Speaker 4: Everyone succeeded so well. Everyone did great. Everyone was so
Speaker 4: nervous about it. I was like, guys, just wear cowboy boots,
Speaker 4: cowboy hat, You'll be great and the guys.
Speaker 3: I just can't get over the guy's outfits. They crushed it.
Speaker 2: What was your favorite part of the entire day?
Speaker 3: The couch was my favorite part.
Speaker 2: This is a nice catch.
Speaker 4: It was just so nice to sit with you, watch
Speaker 4: friends and family and just like talk about the day.
Speaker 4: And that really made it because it goes by so fast.
Speaker 4: It really slowed the day down to like have those
Speaker 4: little moments and it just made it. You know, we
Speaker 4: weren't like separated and with our friends and family dancing
Speaker 4: the whole night.
Speaker 3: We were together, which was great.
Speaker 2: Yours agreed? Would you do it all?
Speaker 3: What's yours?
Speaker 2: The couch?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 1: I told you that in the moment I said when
Speaker 1: we were sitting there, I was like, this is my
Speaker 1: favorite part of the day.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're still my answer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Would you do it all over again if you
Speaker 1: had the chance?
Speaker 3: Love to do it once a year?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Sounds expensive?
Speaker 4: Sorry, I know it's rapid fire, but I'm going to
Speaker 4: do a camp themed birthday party.
Speaker 2: This is way too rapid fire.
Speaker 3: We'll love it again in a year and a half.
Speaker 1: Continue And also, you said you told the old people
Speaker 1: about that, and it seemed like it wasn't as uh
Speaker 1: received quite as warmly as maybe, or maybe I missed
Speaker 1: remp maybe I misunderstanding.
Speaker 3: Everyone was pumped.
Speaker 2: Okay, goot, that's awesome. Thirty thirty, Here we go. Thirty thirty.
Speaker 2: No showers camp theme.
Speaker 3: Oh no, it's gonna be bouge year.
Speaker 1: No dirty thirty you gotta stay dirty. Did speaking of dirty,
Speaker 1: did you have sex on your wedding night?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: No, but I did get skirt steak cand fed to me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's so.
Speaker 2: You know, some might say sex is good, but some
Speaker 2: might say that might be better.
Speaker 4: And then the next day I'm like, yeah, who, it's
Speaker 4: time to consummate, and started my period, which I do
Speaker 4: want to say. I don't know if this even needs
Speaker 4: to be said, but because I started my period the
Speaker 4: next day, my boob screwed twice in size and didn't
Speaker 4: fit into my dress.
Speaker 3: And that's my one regret. I wish I could have
Speaker 3: fixed that.
Speaker 2: You wish you could add smaller boobs?
Speaker 3: Yes, it was so. I was so uncomfortable, but.
Speaker 2: Alas so unfortunate in your life, such.
Speaker 3: As No, the whole night it was d I was
Speaker 3: so stressed.
Speaker 2: Anyways, Yeah, well, I think it's going to do it.
Speaker 1: I wish Jared could have been here with us, because
Speaker 1: you know, he could have included his perspective about the wedding.
Speaker 1: But it's actually kind of nicest way because now next
Speaker 1: week when we have him on, it'll be like a
Speaker 1: whole new episode. Yeah, it'll be like we're talking about
Speaker 1: the wedding for the first time again because we hadn't
Speaker 1: talked with him about it.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I am interested to hear his perspective because I
Speaker 4: do feel like he wasn't super excited.
Speaker 2: He Yeah, he was a little trepidacious, trepidacious, a little pessimistic,
Speaker 2: a little concerned.
Speaker 4: Question and worried that it was like a wedding for
Speaker 4: you and had nothing to do with me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, which, in hindsight and in reality, it was the
Speaker 1: exact episode.
Speaker 2: It was everything for you, nothing for me. Excuse me,
Speaker 2: everything for really little punk what was for me?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 4: The camp theme also for me asmen getting married in
Speaker 4: your hometown.
Speaker 2: I wasn't my hometown was or wasn't was not.
Speaker 3: Okay, thirty minutes outside of your hometown.
Speaker 2: It wasn't my homegrown. Oh my god, keep on coming.
Speaker 3: The outdoors.
Speaker 2: The aspect I hate the outdoors, keep on coming and
Speaker 2: keep trying.
Speaker 3: You not showering for the wedding.
Speaker 2: Aspect, that's just a personal choice.
Speaker 3: Come on, you go tell me how it was about you.
Speaker 2: There wasn't anything about me, but that's fine. It was
Speaker 2: about you you, and it actually worked out for me.
Speaker 1: This is how it was for me, because after the
Speaker 1: wedding yesterday, when Cale and I were spending time and asking,
Speaker 1: She's like, now, all I want to do is live
Speaker 1: in Colorado.
Speaker 4: And I was like, yes, it worked, it worked, And
Speaker 4: I told him, I was like, how'd you do this
Speaker 4: to me? But we have been looking at houses and
Speaker 4: they are too expensive for us, but I would love
Speaker 4: to live here.
Speaker 2: And for the record, I didn't do anything to you.
Speaker 2: Colorado did right, of course. It's the best state in
Speaker 2: the States.
Speaker 1: And you want to know what's crazy too, it's got
Speaker 1: a lot of fourteen ers in this stay.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I climbed all of them.
Speaker 3: We got to talk about that, well, you did it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, weked about it last week, okay, and who cares
Speaker 1: about fourteen years when there's a wedding talk.
Speaker 2: To talk about.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you did it, And I just want to
Speaker 4: say I'm very proud of you. For doing it, for
Speaker 4: accomplishing it, because you did it so fast. Everyone said
Speaker 4: you couldn't do it. That's true, and you did it.
Speaker 4: I did it, and you did it excellently, and I.
Speaker 1: Never have to climb another mountain again. Actually that's not true.
Speaker 1: I might be doing an ad for a phone company
Speaker 1: and I might climb Whitney next week. But that's only
Speaker 1: my neck isn't broken like it is, right.
